| 2008-04-30 | Bruce | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Thanks Wayne! I have cleaned the seal grooves very well with a soft brass pick and Brake fluid. I even used a little heat from a torch as described by Dan at Dan' motorcycle maintenance site. The housing is really clean. I will take your advice with the silicon grease. However this is new to me. I always thought we had to be so careful with any contaminants. Thanks again for your knowledge and advice. Bruce |
